Updates on Martinez?

Anyone know how he has done in practice this week? Sorry if this has been posted some where, but couldn't find anything. Obviously he will not be 100% either way and would not suprise me if he didnt play at all, similar to what Rhoads did last year with Arnaud in leading NU into thinking he was the starter.

Winner of this game has the inside track on the Big 12 North championship. You bet Martinez will play. Team doctors will have the syringes working overtime in the Husker training room. Feelin' no pain.

Re: Updates on Martinez?

The real question for me is not "Will he play?" But rather "Will he be 100%?" As I mentioned in a thread earlier, the injury he sustained is a painful one and, while not debilitating, could cause Taylor Martinez not to be as fast as he has shown he can be. If this is the case, ISU should consider itself lucky.

This!

A Martinez at less than 100% might be better than Zac Lee. If Martinez' ability to scramble is slowed that could be really good for us particularly if he is also not as good a passer as Lee.

And, a strong hit from Knott or Klein early in the game could slow him down and/or make him even more hesitant.
